NoBowl eschews the traditional bowl. Instead, cat owners stuff small portions of dry food into five containers and hide them from the cat. The containers are made of hard plastic and wrapped in stretchy gray fabric, resembling a mouse. The idea is that when the cat is hungry, it will seek out the food and bat the pouch around, dispensing its contents through small holes in the fabric and the plastic.
「無碗」（NoBowl）也就是放棄以碗餵食。代之的是以5個容器內置少量貓乾糧，藏好不給貓看到。容器以硬塑膠製，包覆以耐拉扯的灰色布料，外型模仿老鼠。概念是，貓咪飢餓時，會找出食物，反覆擊打食物容器，貓乾糧便從塑膠容器小洞跑出來。
